PAM Modules
Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) are
commonly used for the login process in many Linux applications.
pam_otpsmtp
Use this with your cell phone provider's email (SMTP) to SMS gateway and use your phone as a "token" device to login remotely from unfamiliar and/or untrusted locations. SSH is a good example. A one time password (OTP) is generated and sent whenever you login from an untrusted location.
Features
- Whitelisting of known IP addresses to bypass the secondary authentication
- Enable for all users or only root
